Line breaks in form textfields

[Vinh Pham <vi...@vt.edu>]

Hey all,
Does anyone know how to use line breaks in form fields? I’ve tried using /r
and /n but it seems to be treated as a space. Also, I am sure multiline is
set as text wrapping appears to be on.

Thanks,
VINH

which version of PDFBox are you using?

Text is split into paragraphs using

	"\\r\\n|\\n|\\r|\\u2028|\\u2029"

and then paragraphs should be handled individually. At least in later versions of 2.0 and 3.0 (not released yet)

What also plays a role is if the field is set for multiline.

Would be good if you could upload the form to a shared location (attachments are not allowed in the mailing list).
